FEM Simulation Engineer

Scania is now undergoing a transformation from being a supplier of trucks, buses and engines to a supplier of complete and sustainable transport solutions.As a simulation engineer within the group, Strength and Durability simulation for chassis components (RTLC), you will play an important role in realizing one of Scania's main strategies, Simulation-driven product development!

This is us

We are a team of 20 simulation engineers, with a mixture of different experiences, nationalities, and ages. We strive for an open atmosphere where everyone can express their opinions and ideas. Within the group we work with both aerodynamic- and strength/durability simulations; The open position is in the strength/durability team. By having a tight collaboration with design, material, and testing departments we are working to predict and improve the strength and durability of Scania Trucks. We are supporting several design departments with finite element method (FEM) simulations in a variety of different projects; electrified vehicles, sensor installations, special orders, etc. 

Your tasks  

As a simulation engineer, you will support design engineers in improving the components from a strength and durability point of view. Another important aspect is finding sustainable solutions and generating ideas that minimize our environmental impact.

Some of your typical work tasks will be:


• Performing FEM simulations and recommending design changes based on your results.
• Create presentations and reports in a comprehensive and clear way.
• Cooperate with test engineers to align and compare your FEM results with component failures in large-scale physical tests.
• Develop and improve simulation methods to increase accuracy and lower the simulation time.

This is you 

We are looking for a decisive and driven problem solver. You have great analytical skills and have worked for a couple of years within strength and durability simulations in commercial FEM software. You are a team player who takes responsibility and drives to develop yourself and your team.

We would also like that: 


• You have a bachelor’s or master’s degree in mechanical engineering, applied physics, or equivalent with a focus on calculations/simulations.
• You have experience with FEM software. If you have experience with Abaqus and Hypermesh, it is a merit.
• You write and speak fluently in English. If you write and speak fluently in Swedish, it is a merit.

It is also a merit with experience coding in Python.

At Scania, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles! We hire for attitude and train for skills.
